1. Access the main menu Charging > Sched-
ule.
2. Create or edit the active schedule for the
location where the compatible charger is
installed.
3. Activate the option “Control via home en-
ergy management system”.
Charging with excess solar energy
If you have solar panels at home, you can
charge your vehicle using any surplus produc-
tion. The vehicle will use the energy instead of
it being fed into the grid.
It is necessary to be feeding more than 2kW
into the grid for the vehicle to charge using the
surplus.
Prerequisites
●
Compatible home energy management sys-
tem (HEMS).
●
Compatible charging station.
●
A charging location (routine) has been cre-
ated in the Infotainment system.
●
The vehicle is synchronised using the My CU-
PRA App.
Note
Ask specialist personnel for conrmation
about a suitable home energy management
system. It is recommended to use a CUPRA
partner.
Selecting the charging mode
●
Press on the drop-down charging mode
list and select Charge with solar energy
›››page83.
The charging process starts automatically.
Note
Depending on the power supplied by the so-
lar installation and the household's instan-
taneous electricity consumption, the charg-
ing process may start earlier than usual and
continue later. If necessary, the vehicle au-
tomatically regulates the available charging
phases for safety reasons.
Charging cable
Introduction
The type of charging cable supplied with the
vehicle basically depends on the technical
specications of each country, e.g. charging
connector connections for sockets.
CUPRA recommends exclusively using the
supplied charging cable.
